Description:
Double backslashes ("\\") display in file path in P_S tables `file_instances` and `file_summary_by_instance` between last folder in path and file name. Between folders a single backslash is correctly used like

DRIVE:\path\to\\file.name

(example: C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\Data\mysql\\db.opt)

How to repeat:
SELECT * FROM `performance_schema`.`file_instances`;
SELECT * FROM `performance_schema`.`file_summary_by_instance`;

Suggested fix:
DRIVE:\path\to\\file.name

should be 

DRIVE:\path\to\file.name

Edited 'file name' >> 'file path' in synopsis.

Thank you for the problem report. Verified just as described on Windows XP.

Noted in 5.5.23, 5.6.6 changelogs. 

The Performance Schema incorrectly displayed some backslashes in 
Windows file names (by doubling them).
